Lionheart Snapshot Series
🌍
In our practice here at Lionheart Corporate Governance where we deal in the realm of modern governance, #ESG discussions reign supreme, significantly impacting investor relations and regulatory landscapes.
What we are seeing with Irish Board Directors seeking continuous professional development (CPD) or Effective Board Evaluations, is that they are honing in on the "S" in ESG—which represents the Social aspect—clearly at this point its become a strategic priority.
🔍 Why the "S" in ESG Matters for Irish Boards:
1️⃣ Responding to Changing Career Dynamics:
Embrace a positive, flexible corporate culture to navigate the aftermath of the pandemic. As Organisations and Boards transition from the "Great Resignation" to a "great comeback," fostering a meaningful workplace environment becomes crucial. the challenge of the day is how to address labor shortages and attract talent and one of the ways is by prioritising values and purpose at work.
2️⃣ Catering to a Conscious Generation Z:
Generation Z, a potent consumer base, values sustainability and inclusivity. Their purchasing power has doubled in just three years, as per Bloomberg. To resonate with this generation and enhance brand appeal, companies need to proactively embody these values.
3️⃣ Navigating a Transparent Era:
We say it every day to every Board we engage with:
"Modern times demand absolute transparency".
The treatment of employees, product quality, and overall corporate image are under intense 24/7 scrutiny. Any missteps in these domains can swiftly and enduringly impact a company's bottom line. Upholding a positive image is paramount.
🔒 Regulatory Landscape and Social Obligations:
Regulators are intensifying their focus on social disclosures. The oversight of supply chains and related obligations is becoming increasingly intricate for Irish and multinational corporations, particularly in a fragmented global market. Technological advancements drive regulatory bodies to design rules that align with societal expectations and safeguard national interests.
👀 The Future is Social (S) in ESG:
As individuals, society, and regulators evolve, the spotlight is firmly on the "S" in ESG. Irish Boards must adeptly navigate these shifts, understanding that the social aspect is pivotal for sustainable success and effective governance.
🚀 Stay Ahead, Embrace the "S" in ESG! 🚀
Our advice here at Lionheart Corporate Governance is to sharpen your social strategy and propel your organisation towards a future where responsible practices and societal impact drive lasting success.
